Install this theme component

⚠ This is still an experimental component, which overrides widgets, will most likely break with header refactors, and will not play well with other header components.

We’ll do our best to maintain this component and to minimise breaking changes, but we can’t guarantee these will never occur. A fix will most likely come, but you may have to wait a bit longer.

Example:

This component is currently also be used in the [Fully](https://meta.discourse.org/t/fully-a-full-width-discourse-theme/262833) and the “Default (full width)” theme here on Meta.

On very wide screens this might be less suitable.
